That makes sense. We have had 2 female siblings before with no issues, but perhaps for these ladies they are just figuring out who will back down.

I wish we could take them to puppy school, but we live quite remotely and the closest one is over 1200kms away..... so we will have to work through it alone, once they have had all their vaccinations we will begin to socialise them with the other doggies in the neighbourhood.

We met the mother and these girls were actually 2 of the last to leave the litter. So I wonder whats happening with the rest of the pups.

Thanks for your advice
